Native Voices Presents 27th Festival of New Plays

ABOUT NATIVE VOICES AT THE AUTRY

Native Voices at the Autry places Native narratives at the center of the American story to facilitate a more inclusive dialogue on what it means to be American. Founded in 1994 by Randy Reinholz (Choctaw) and Jean Bruce Scott, Native Voices is dedicated to the development and production of new works for the stage written by American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, and First Nations playwrights. The organization remains committed to emerging and established Native playwrights and theatre artists; telling Native stories by and about Native people; and providing the public access to these plays and playwrights—all with the goal of fostering greater understanding and respect of showcasing artistic voices that might otherwise not be heard.
